Language models fail at extended rule following
Tianxiang Dai, Jonathan Fan
Large language models are highly capable of answering difficult questions by retrieving, recombining, and attending to information in long contexts. For agentic tasks, an additiona…
Hydrogel-to-Aerogel Transitions in Polymer-Particle Hydrogels Expand the Wildfire Defense Window
Changxin Dong, Samya Sen, Zhennan Ru +4
The 2025 Los Angeles wildfires caused widespread urban destruction and displacement, and severe economic losses, highlighting the urgent need for better fire retardants. Current fi…
Design space reparameterization enforces hard geometric constraints in inverse-designed nanophotonic devices
Mingkun Chen, Jiaqi Jiang, Jonathan Fan
Inverse design algorithms are the basis for realizing high-performance, freeform nanophotonic devices. Current methods to enforce geometric constraints, such as practical fabricati…
FOLIO: Natural Language Reasoning with First-Order Logic
Simeng Han, Hailey Schoelkopf, Yilun Zhao +32
Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable performance on a variety of natural language understanding tasks. However, existing benchmarks are inadequate in measuring the…
Characterizing and Optimizing the Spatial Kernel of Multi Resolution Hash Encodings
Tianxiang Dai, Jonathan Fan
Multi-Resolution Hash Encoding (MHE), the foundational technique behind Instant Neural Graphics Primitives, provides a powerful parameterization for neural fields. However, its spa…
